A decade after the anti-government, anti-tax, and anti-Obama insurgency emerged

I stopped right there. I recall the Taxed Enough Already party started under President Bush, was never anti-government and 0bama was not even a thought.

the only thing the mainstream RINOs are nervous over is how this will effect contributions from their establishment masters.

Just Liberal wet dream at that point.

IIRC Turd Blossom and W were rabid anti-TEA party folks. Soetoro simply finished them off with a corrupt IRS who bankrupted the organizations incrementally, one chapter at a time.

This time they’re not trying to blow up the system or fight big government. They’re here to support President Trump, no matter that he’s the biggest big-government Republican of them all.

What a bald faced lie.

Lowered taxes, increased government revenue (read that helping to reduce deficit spending)...

Creating an atmosphere where people will be able to find jobs, thus reducing dependence on the government.

Ending the Obamacare mandate.

Big government?

He would have been glad to do more if McConnell and Ryan had lifted a finger to send him more legislation.

I suspect all the RINO quitters are all like “It’s just no fun anymore with all these expectations of accountability. ...and with the bribes, kickbacks and payoffs drying up. I’m outta here.”

“I stopped right there. “

i didn’t even get that far: it IS vox after all ... yet another uber-leftist front for the Democrat-Progressive-Socialist-Kommie Party ...

what gets me is that the Rino’s are STILL trying to pass amnesty, even after they quit in the fall!

Yes we are. Vox.com, who would believe anything that comes from them?

We need them both gone.

I am not comfortable with Ryan overseeing spending and green lighting the right legislative efforts to repair this nation.

Both are extremely incompetent.

We need to give Trump some first class activist partners ASAP.

It would be nice if a lot of Republicans would “ride the wave”.

I’ve already sent letters to both Senators Burr and Tillis here in NC to excoriate them for their disgraceful lack of support (and actually outright antipathy) of Donald Trump and the rule of law. Both need to be primaried with extreme prejudice.

I would encourage everyone else on Free Republic to do the same. The GOP needs to step up and take charge alongside our president.

What do you expect? It is the clown show called Vox. Not a serious source for anything but infantile incoherence and shameless DNC propagandizing

We aren’t anti-government and anti-tax.

We want smaller givernment and less taxes.

We were totally anti-Obama

“Mainstream Republicans” should be nervous...never-Trumpers in our own party.

Either get ON the Trump Train, or be left standing on the tracks.

Not sure the Vox is where you should look for honest assessment of anything conservative!
